With platforms like LinkedIn Learning and GitHub portfolios, many employers now look beyond degrees. Could skills and projects become the new hiring standard?

Yes, skill-based hiring is rapidly gaining ground and could increasingly replace degree-based hiring in many industries. Companies now value practical skills, portfolios, and certifications (like in coding, design, marketing, etc.) more than just formal degrees—especially in tech and creative fields.
However, degrees may still matter in regulated professions like medicine, law, or academia. In most other fields, a strong skillset + experience = better job chances, even without a traditional degree.
